-So, today I was at Hancock Fabrics, and I looked up from whatever it was I was looking at and noticed a couple of people at the end of the aisle. Normally, I wouldn’t have thought anything of it, but what drew my attention was that two of them were wearing the Fourth Doctor scarves. (Two different versions.) They turned out to be pretty cool, and randomly meeting fellow Whovians totally made my day.

-I’ve yet to hear back from the job I interviewed with last week. They told me they’d let me know one way or another by the end of this week. I’m hoping that they simply forgot to figure in the fact that Christmas was this week, and I’ll hear something next week. I’ve been in full blown panic since last night. I know I shouldn’t worry, but being jobless is not something I handle brilliantly. Plus, I really want the job at the lab, and the longer I have to wait to find out if I got the job makes me more and more stressed.

-The flu has been bouncing around our home since Christmas Eve. It finally attacked me this afternoon. Hopefully it’s about run out of steam.

-I’m super excited about the S Loom I got for Christmas. I do loom knitting, and I’ve been drooling over the S Loom for a couple of years now. I’m really bad at stitching panels together to create a blanket, so the S Loom was really appealing to me because it allows me to make blankets without having to mess with the stitching of panels.

-So, I’m not sure if I stumbled across something really incredibly stupid, or the most brilliant money-making scheme ever. Yesterday, I was at the grocery store and one of the freezer endcaps had a deal featured that was if you bought 6 Lean Cuisines you got either a free pack of Skinny Cow ice cream treats or a free container of Edy’s ice cream. Now, I thought people at Lean Cuisine because of the weight brought on by eating things like Edy’s. However, if the person on the diet eats the Edy’s, they’ll gain weight and need more Lean Cuisine.

-Yesterday, I went to the Joslyn, and was once again confronted with the fact that while I really love art, I just don’t get modern art. There was a piece of paper that was painted with a rectangle of black and a rectangle of grey. Those were the only things on that piece of paper, and it was hung proudly on the wall. I’m confused. What about that makes it art? I grew up believing that art was something you put your heart and soul into. Maybe the artist is obsessed with rectangles. I can’t think of any other reason that makes it make sense.

-I was introduced to Spotify this week. It’s what I’ve always wanted Pandora to be. I like that if I’m in the mood to hear a specific song, Spotify will play said song, and not one that it judges to be similar. Although, I’m really hating that tonight Spotify is insisting on playing Trojan commercials every single time it goes to a commercial break.

-I can’t believe it’s almost 2013.

-Tonight I realized that the relationship of Sherlock and John on Sherlock is exactly like that of Sheldon and Leonard on Big Bang Theory. John is Sherlock’s filter. He’s the one who keeps Sherlock in check. This is pretty much what Leonard does for Sheldon.

-Speaking of Sherlock, !!!!!!!!HERE BE SPOILERS!!!!!!! I’m still trying to figure out how he survived suicide. Obviously, he did, but how. Mom’s theory is that there was a mask that he put over Moriarity’s face. Possible, but it’s still bothering me that we were shown someone alive standing on the edge of the roof moving around. I know that Molly had to have helped him cook up some solution, but I still can’t quite put my finger on what it is.
